Process Lasso / Auto Log Rotation

« Last post by Coldblackice on February 25, 2021, 08:35:21 PM »

Would it be possible to get an auto log-rotation function, which saves logs to CSV in intervals? I can see in the log output folder that the ability is already there, albeit in non-CSV format.

This would be helpful as there are times when I look back in the log and investigate something anomalous, it's helpful to be able to see what other system actions/launches/terminations happened around that same time.

They are definitely easy to miss in dark mode. I'm working on it . Planned to improve by v10. Dark Mode has been quite painful to implement properly.

How is that different from the filter box already present over the right side of actions pane? It should function exactly as you describe, an all-encompassing live filter of the actions listview.

The filter boxes aren't very visible in dark mode, but a pending change will make the background of the filter edit controls darker than the main window background.

Well I'll be damned! Look at that, right there in front of me under my nose. And even one for the process pane, too!

Ha awesome, this is great. Thanks for the heads-up. Good idea about the color differentiation of the input boxes.

General / Re: Process user/kernel time - explanation?

Those metrics are cumulative for the entire existence of each process, not only since Process Lasso started. Process Lasso doesn't keep track of those, the OS does.

Please let me know if I can clarify anything further.

General / Process user/kernel time - explanation?

« Last post by empleat on February 14, 2021, 09:15:10 PM »

Hello,

I can see under process user time and kernel time. I know what it means. I am just interested in stats. Is this average time, after whole time of process lasso is running? Or over some period. Also does P Lasso counter it, if logging is disabled?

That would be helpful, I can't find it in documentation, nor google it.

Is there any benefit to having Process Lasso not run as a service? Not that I want to, just curious.

For most users, there is no benefit to running the governor as a normal process. That would only be useful in some rare situations, such as not being able to install a service. Previous limitations to the governor-as-a-service have all been resolved.

EDIT: The one remaining exception is 'Keep Running' rules to auto-restart an application Those still require the governor to be running within the user session of the target process.

Process Lasso / Quick Filters on the Action Log

« Last post by Coldblackice on February 12, 2021, 11:20:21 PM »

It would be awesome if a quick-filters ability could be added to the Actions Log pane, boxes at the top of each column (or just one all-encompassing box) where whatever is typed live-filters the entries. It'd be super useful to be able to filter the commandline column for switches, for example, or the actions column for certain actions, or the datetime column to see the entries during a particular time window.

Not a huge deal of course, just would be pretty handy.
